1966 Ford Mustang Convertible

Data plate indicates the
car was manufactured in Detroit off the assembly line December 30th
1965 , originally distributed and sold in Chicago, Factory "C Code"
289 V8 2 barrel carb. California Black Plate car, meaning it has original
license plates form the 1960's, after 1969 the plates were blue so the
car has been in California at least since 1969. Data plate also indicates
289 V8 2 barrel carb, Automatic trans, Pony Interior and F code 2.80:1
ratio Traction Lock limited slip rear axle. The traction lock makes
sense for a car originally sold & used in snowy Chicago.

The car is Night Mist Blue
with Blue and White "Pony" interior, an original combination
offered on the 1966 Mustang convertible. The blue is a slight shade
lighter than the standard issue Night Mist blue, but close enough where
I would still consider this a numbers matching car,meaning that correct
color / engine / trans as indicated on the dataplate code. All exterior
trim intact and correct.

Excellent paint job, . Power
top with glass rear window. Front and rear bumpers are bright like new,
and have been re chromed or replaced . Body panels line up excellent,
with no "wave" when you look at the reflection in the bumpers
indicating this is an accident free car with no body filler Spinner
style hubcaps with blue hub center (1966 Mustang period correct option).
Matching Michelin tires almost new with 90% wear all around .

INTERIOR

Interior door panels , seat covers all very good. All widow regulators
/ tracks good, windows go up and down smoothly.
The dash area is very presentable clean, and has a new aftermarket vinyl
dash pad. The steering wheel brightwork and dash knobs are original
and show pitting consistent with the age of the car, they would clean
up with a professional detail and polish.

Headlights, hi-lo beams, wipers , heater fan, temp gauges all OK. Ampmeter
and oil pressure gauge not working, there is an after market oil pressure
gauge under the dash that works, as well as an ampmeter that
needs to be hooked up. ROAD TEST

Nice soft throaty sound
coming from dual exhaust. Car tracked well, did not drift right or left,
auto trans working upshift/downshift into all three gears. This 35+
year So Cal veteran presents very well, and is great example of a 1966
Mustang !
